SIMILAR SPORT COULD B ARE THE SAME. ALLEGEDLY, IT HIT BACK YOUR SUMMER. THE MOMENT HE SAW A LAWSUIT FILED IN A CONNECTION WITH HIS SON THROWING THIS BASEBALL HELMET IN THE AIR, HE WAS DUMBFOUNDED. I THOUGHT IT WAS A YOKE AT FIRST. -- I THOUGHT IT WAS A JOKE AT FIRST. AND NOW? I THINK IT IS ABSURD. HIS 14-YEAR-OLD SON IS BEING SUED BY HIS FORMER LITTLE LEAGUE BASEBALL COACH, CHIROPRACTOR ALAN BECK, FOR WHAT THAT SAID THE BOY DID DURING A GAME. HIS SON WAS ON SECOND BASE IN THE LAST INNING WHEN HIS TEAMMATES HIT THE GAME-WINNING HIT. AS HIS SON CAMERON TO SCORE, THE DAD SAYS HE THREW HIS HELMET INTO THE AIR. THAT IS WHEN THE BOYS OWN COACH SAID IN COURT PAPERS THAT THE HELMET HIT HIM IN HIS ACHILLES HEEL, SEVERING IT. NOW HE IS SUING THEM FOR PAIN AND SUFFERING, LOST WAGES AND MEDICAL BILLS. HE WILL NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING TODAY. WHEN I FINALLY DID CONTACT ALAN BECK'S THIS AFTERNOON, HE SAID HE COULD NOT COMMENT UNTIL HE SPOKE WITH HIS ATTORNEY. BUT THE FORMER COACH AND HIS SON OPENLY QUESTIONED HOW THE BOY COULD BE HELD LEO BULL -- HELD LIABLE. THIS WILL BE A TOUGH CASE TO PROVE IN A SPORT WHERE BATS AND BALLS AND EVEN HELMETS FLY DURING EVERY GAME. THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THAT WHOEVER RESPONSE TO THIS LAWSUIT WILL GET IT DISMISSED ON THE ISSUE THAT THE PLAINTIFF IN THIS CASE WILL FULLY SIGNED ON TO POTENTIAL CONTACT. BECAUSE BASEBALL IS A CONTACT SPORT. THE BOY'S FATHER SAID THAT HE HAS PARTY PAID OVER $4000 IN
